The Next Day
After his morning practice, Fang Li returned to his room and took a cold shower before grabbing his bag and heading to class. Despite the lively chat group discussions from the previous night, he anticipated merciless interrogation upon entering the classroom.
However, upon arrival, he discovered the class was preoccupied with a different matter.
"Hey, have you confirmed your points?"
"I did, but I haven't received them yet."
"Wasn't it supposed to be given out on the first day of the month?"
"Yeah, Why haven't the points come yet?"
Confused chatter filled the room as boys and girls alike engaged in discussions about the points system. Even Hirata Yousuke, Karuizawa Kei, Kushida Kikyou, Ike Kanji, and Yamauchi Haruki confirmed their points with their close friends.
It appeared that none of them had received their new points yet, causing confusion and concern among the students.
As Fang Li sat in his seat, Horikita Suzune, who was sitting next to him, immediately began to speak.
"You didn't receive the points, right?" she asked, after confirming on her phone.
Fang Li turned to see that Ayanokouji Kiyotaka, who was on the other side of Horikita Suzune, also shook his head in confirmation, indicating that he had not received the points either.
"I haven't received them either," Fang Li replied confidently.
He had already checked the status of his points during his morning practice, and the number had remained unchanged.
"It seems like change is coming..." murmured Horikita Suzune and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka simultaneously.
Everyone in the class was in a state of confusion, feeling puzzled and even anxious about the matter at hand. In particular, those who had been careless in spending their points, such as Ike Kanji, Yamauchi Haruki, and even Karuizawa Kei, who had spent a lot of points, appeared to be in a state of turmoil. It was evident that they were in urgent need of points and were already in a full-blown crisis.
The noise in the entire classroom grew louder and louder, until Hirata Yousuke could no longer stand it. He stood up and addressed the class, saying, "Please don't worry, everyone. I will go to the staff office and confirm with Chabashira-sensei."
Hirata's words were acknowledged by everyone in the class, Only at this time …
"No, Hirata, I have come."
With such a calm voice as always, Chabashira Sae pushed the door of the classroom and walked in from outside the door.
Under her arm, there were even a few sheets of paper rolled into a poster tube. The class was surprised to see her, and everyone began to murmur and whisper.
Despite her usual cold demeanor, Chabashira Sae seemed different today. The air around her seemed colder, and the students could sense that something was off. She stepped onto the podium and addressed the class, saying, "I know that you have a lot of questions. One of the biggest questions is why the points for this month have not been allocated to you."
She continued in her usual indifferent tone, "I can answer your questions. You don't need to think too much. There is no mistake on the school's part. Everything is as it should be."
This statement left the students in a state of confusion. Fang Li, Horikita Suzune, and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka remained silent and watched the situation unfold. Hirata Yousuke asked on behalf of the entire class, "Teacher, to be honest, I don't really understand what you mean. If this is not the school's mistake, then why have the points for this month not been received? Isn't it true that 100,000 points are allocated every month?"
Chabashira Sae smiled in response, "When did I say that 100,000 points would be allocated to everyone every month?"
This statement shocked everyone, but those with good memories remembered that Chabashira Sae had only said that the school would automatically allocate the required points to all students on the first day of each month. "I only said that the school would automatically allocate the required points to all students on the first day of each month."
Everyone in the classroom was shocked to realize that Chabashira Sae never said anything about 100,000 points every month. "The number of points you have this month is '0'," Chabashira Sae declared emotionlessly.
The students in the class had finally reached their breaking point.
"Why are our points zero?" one asked.
"Does this mean we won't receive any points this month?" another added.
"I can't accept this!" a third protested.
The students continued to voice their frustrations, but Chabashira Sae interrupted them with a cold, hard truth.
"Whose fault is it that your points are zero this month?" she asked, her voice unyielding.
"If this continues, you won't receive any points next month either, even if you're in the second or third year, or even after graduation."
Her words were a stark warning, and the students were left stunned.
"The points will be zero next time?" one student repeated in disbelief.
"What is going on here?" another was left stunned.
The students were no longer angry, but rather defeated.
Even Horikita Suzune and Ayanokouji Kiyotaka furrowed their brows. Although they had been concerned from the start and had not squandered their points, they still could not believe how they could only use 100,000 points to live for the next three years.
Fang Li, however, had a sudden realization. "So the school provides free services for situations like this?" he exclaimed.
Those free services exist for this very situation. Although the school provided 100,000 points, they weren't enough because of situations like this, and students would inevitably need to rely on the free services. This means that students need free stuff, just as Fang Li had previously guessed.
Even if there are 100,000 points, there will still come a time when free products are needed. This school is not paradise at all. At the very least, for those in this class, what will come next will be hell.
I had accident today so I have more free time, so ended up translating this chapter too. on that note give me some power stones.
